Notes: | Evolution's Purpose An Integral Interpretation of the Scientific Story of Our Origins Friday, November 16, 7 9 pm $10 suggested donation Integral philosopher Steve McIntosh will speak about his new book: Evolution's Purpose: An Integral Interpretation of the Scientific Story of Our Origins. Evolution's Purpose presents a fresh and compelling view of the scientific facts of evolution, and shows how a deeper understanding of evolution itself can lead directly to a more evolved world. As science has increasingly shown how everything in the universe is subject to evolutionincluding matter, life, and human culturethese very facts reveal that the process of evolution is unmistakably progressive. And as we come to understand how evolution progresses, this reveals evolution's purposeto grow toward ever-widening realizations of beauty, truth, and goodness. It is through the generation of these most intrinsic forms of value that evolution expresses its spiritual message. McIntosh argues that the purpose of evolution is not "intelligently designed" or otherwise externally controlled; rather, its purpose is being creatively and originally discerned through the choices of evolutionary creatures themselves. Without relying on any spiritual authorities, the book demonstrates evolution's purposeful progression and shows how the scientific story of our origins is actually a profound and sacred teaching compatible with many forms of contemporary spirituality.
